Cushions and Coasters Now Available

I'm delighted to announce that a range of Aileen Clarke Crafts Cushions and Coasters are now available to order!
These three sample cushions arrived yesterday and I'm really pleased with them.


They are really vibrant and printed onto suede effect fabric making them lovely and soft to the touch. The quality of the print really retains the tactile look of the original fibres used in the picture.
These three designs are available to order now.


Lunasa Cottage
45 x 45 cm 
£40 including the cushion insert


Hannah's House
45 x 45 cm 
£40 including the cushion insert


Deep Purple Hills
45 x 45 cm 
£40 including the cushion insert

The larger cushions are available on Etsy now here 

A smaller 30 x 30 cm cushion is also available at £30
email me to order at aileenclarkecrafts@yahoo.com


The coasters have turned out really well. They are printed onto hard wood so no cork backing or felt that gets wet and messy.

The print has a glossy finish making each coaster wipe-able.


Set of Four Coasters 
£14.95
Choose four the same or a mixed set.


Each set of four comes Gift Boxed making the perfect ready made present.
There are lots of designs to choose from here


All my events for 2014 are now finished so everything that I have available for sale is now listed in my Etsy shop

I have added more Pendants, Earrings and Brooches today.




Pendants £24




Earrings £18

and Brooches £12


I have made so many of my Textile Trinket Boxes over the past few weeks and nearly sold out of them yet again.
These four 5 x 5 x 5 cm ones at £28 are still available.
I hope to get a few in the larger sizes made this week.


I really enjoyed my run of Craft Fairs and Makers Market throughout October and November but I'm glad I am not having to work to a deadline every week. It becomes quite exhausting. I still have plenty to get on with though with keeping my online shop stocked and a few commission pieces.

I had a brilliant time at The Handmade Show on Sunday and now my last event for this year is fast approaching.

I am hoping to have good news about my Cushions soon. I've been trying to source a UK company that will print them for me and I have some samples coming this week.








I'll keep you all posted.

The Handmade Show, Sunday 16th November 2014


My Craft Fair season continues with The Handmade Show on Sunday 16th November. This will be the fourth Handmade Show and I am very much looking forward to it. It is held in the foyer of Perth Concert Hall and hosts a fantastic variety of makers from all over Scotland.
You can find the full list of exhibitors here. It is worth noting that there are two events this year, one in Perth and one in Glasgow and not all of the exhibitors are attending both events. I will only be at the Perth one.

I'm working flat out to make as many new things to bring along as possible so I don't have many new photos to share. You can scroll down through previous posts to get an idea of what I will have with me.

I do have this new Textile Trinket Box though.
This one measures 10 x 6 cm and is £40
Hoping to have more similar finished in time.


I have lots of Textile and Glass Jewellery made including Pendants, Earrings, Bracelets and Rings.





New to my Printed range are these A5 Artists Sketch Pads.



£3.95


And two firm favourites are back in stock



Vibrant Hills and Harvey Notebooks £5.95


Harvey is also available as a loose Print.


Prints measure 19 x 21 cm
£6


Lupins and Sheep £6


Vibrant Hills and Distant Glens also £6


As the nights draw in it is very easy to get cosy in front of the fire instead of bashing on with work but with The Handmade Show on the 16th and The Makers Market at The Steeple in Newburgh on Saturday the 22nd November, I really must resist the urge to start hibernating. These two events will be the last for me this year. 
Remember you can also buy online here
